AQI: Good (0 - 50)
Air quality is considered satisfactory, and air pollution poses little or no risk.

AQI: Moderate (51 - 100)
Air quality is acceptable; however, for some pollutants there may be a moderate health concern for a very small number of people who are unusually sensitive to air pollution.

AQI: Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (101 - 150)
Although general public is not likely to be affected at this AQI range, people with lung disease, older adults and children are at a greater risk from exposure to ozone, whereas persons with heart and lung disease, older adults and children are at greater risk from the presence of particles in the air.

Forecast Discussion: Sep 13-17, 2019 High pressure continues to build bringing unseasonably hot temperatures to coastal and inland areas Thursday - Sunday. Heat advisories expected to be issued for inland areas and Santa Cruz for Thursday and Friday. Cooling returns on Monday as a low pressure cell dips down just to our north. Forecasting models indicate smoke from the Walker and other smaller wildfires may extend south towards Central California possibly affecting our local AQI for PM 2.5. Generally, smoke tends to stay aloft but certain meteorological conditions could cause it to descend. If so, some areas may have the AQI for PM 2.5 slip into the MODERATE category temporarily. With the elevated heat inland, AQI for Ozone may also slip into the MODERATE category. Otherwise, GOOD AQI status is expected in all remaining areas.
